    Oh I know just stating that filling the dome for playoff games is hard enough let alone throwing out a need for a stadium with a seating capacity of 30-40k.

    but yes- the P5 definitely has a monopoly and should do a much larger playoff. couldnt agree more
    Dont forget the dirty tricks they play messing with our privacy, manipulating searches & news etc. Dont act like big tech are a bunch of angels.

    Fargodome wasn’t filled completely when it first opened. 45k is on the way high end. There would be absolutely no point to building a new stadium at 25,000. Fargodome more than serves its purpose if that’s the only opportunity loss. 50% more seats at least or else we’ll never have a new stadium.

    I wonder what the NDSU streaming numbers are. I wouldn’t release them if I was espn.

    Negotiated a sweet deal at $0 cost of content in return for exposure. Then put content behind a $5/mo paywall.

    Bet the viewership is better than most would think.

    Yeah, but Oregon lost everyone

    Overlooked them

    No win game

    Worst Oregon team ever

    Indoors or out? Outdoors we are going to lose people.

    It would almost positively be an indoor stadium otherwise we’ll look like SDSU and not the warm SDSU. I’m telling you an enclosed version of the Saskatchewan Roughriders Mosaic Stadium is the ticket. If I had enough knowledge on finding a rendering of it and was able to share I would. 33,350 with and expandable 40k option.

    CB6A8BC5-5CFF-4C3A-AB2E-3940AB78D1EF.jpg I can’t find the enclosed one but will continue to look. Cost was $278mill without being enclosed and I do believe that was in US currency.
